HELP!! BA in Humanities With Concentration in Communication Degree Plan (EC)

[Jonathan Whatley]

What you have to consider is that Excelsior College has mostly non-traditional students. Their students already have a lot of work experience, so they are just looking to check the box with any degree. When traditional students graduate, they will have lower salaries since they tend to have little experience. In other words, there is nothing special about Excelsior when it comes to salaries; it's all about the types of students they attract.

Yep. In short, Excelsior College liberal arts majors have high pay at graduation in very large part because Excelsior College liberal arts majors, as a group and compared to other colleges, were established in their careers before they even signed up with Excelsior College. The high pay at graduation compared to other colleges isn't an outcome of the EC degree (much).
